As “Kurier” reports, around 50 people are said to have entered the Anton church in Vienna-Favoriten on Thursday evening. There it is said that the angry crowd rioted and kicked the benches and the confessional. It is said that they shouted “Allahu Akbar”.
The assistant pastor had alerted the executive, but by the time the rioters arrived they had already returned. The entire incident is said to have been recorded by a surveillance camera. “Southern-looking youths” should be seen in the recordings, “Kurier” quotes a police report.
